Ray Allen, who was said to be mulling over retirement after the Miami Heat's season ended in a NBA Finals loss to the San Antonio Spurs, is leaning toward reuniting with LeBron James in Cleveland, a report from a Boston Globe reporter said.

Allen's interest in the Cavaliers comes during their pursuit of Lake Oswego native Kevin Love in a busy offseason for Cleveland. Cleveland already added one marksman in Mike Miller, who signed a two-year, $5.5 million deal. Miller told ESPN he is recruiting Allen to join the Cavaliers. Another former Heat, James Jones, has also already signed with the Cavaliers.

Allen is the NBA's all-time leading 3-point shooter, having made the most in the league's history. Last season with the Heat, Allen came off the bench, playing 26 minutes and scoring 9.6 points on 37.5% shooting from beyond the arc. He has career averages of 18.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists per game, while shooting 45% from the field, 40% from the 3-point line, and 89.4 % from the free throw line.
